Gman has finished his Mexico lapbook. Little did we realise that he had done so much work on so many mini-books that he would need two oversized lapbooks :-) ; one for Modern Mexico and one for Ancient Mexico. Here's some pics of the modern Mexico lapbook:

Gman has really enjoyed this project, particularly customising his own minibooks rather than using templates.

I think I have been neglecting the edible side of this blog for a while, so thought I would share this recipe with you. These are pretty yummy!

Gluten and Dairy Free Cornmeal Hush Puppies

1 onion, very finely chopped

1 egg, beaten

1 cup unsweetened soya milk

1 cup coarse cornmeal

1 cup gluten free flour

1 tbsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

good grind of pepper

pinch of chilli powder

Simply mix everything together until you have a fairly smooth batter. You may need to add a little extra soya milk.

Heat some oil in a frying pan or skillet and drop ladlefuls of the mixture into the pan. Cook for a few of minutes on each side until they are nice and golden and puffy. Keep warm while you fry the rest.
